The First Ever Magi Archive

The first ever recorded Magi archive is from a woman named Roshena.Roshena’s writings come up a few more times in the later part of the 9th century B.C., and she is mentioned briefly in the Chronicles of Gormandel, which is where the Magi get the majority of their history.I have obtained several excerpts from the Chronicles of Gormandel, which I will release later.However, this is the first ever recorded archive period.

While her account is brief, it is rich with information.The Magi believe that this was part of a larger scroll, which has not yet been discovered.They believe that Roshena was writing something like a diary or journal for her family history.As you will read, this spells out some of the first discoveries of elemental control:

(Translated into English)

"It happened again today.A few citizens from the Academy have spent days out in the natural world all alone and have come back saying that they think they have connected with the world around them.I had been trying for weeks and haven’t been able to do what they claim they can do.However, just like last week, I think I was able to change the wind patterns around me. I haven’t said anything to anyone yet, but I think it has something to do with my mood.Both times I was able to control the winds when I felt impulsive.I’m not sure what this means, or if it means anything at all.Tomorrow, when the Peacekeepers go out to search for truths, I will try again.”

-Roshena (830 BC)

Again, since Roshena talks about another instance where she was able to control the wind, “just like last week, I think I was able to change the wind patterns”, there is reason to believe there is still an uncovered document.

According to the Chronicles of Gormendel, the Peacekeepers were the group of people who looked for good in the world despite the chaos around them.They would later call themselves the Magi.
